I've made three cakes so far and had my nails done and shopped at Carfagna's. I am moving right along because I thought I had two weeks before guests arrived and I have only a week as of today. It will work out because the Cincinnati gang is taking care of all of the meat this time and Pam is doing pies. Everything is under control because Matt is doing the outside, Andy does the pool and flowers, Beth does the inside and I am doing the cooking sans the meat dishes. Heather's husband is bringing one of his big, famous, luscious, cheesecakes too. So we are setting up the dining room as the dessert station; the porch is the drinks and starters, and the kitchen holds the rest of the delights for two meals on the 4th. We figure forty people this time and the day is supposed to be beautiful.
The orange juice cake is still in the oven, but here are two finished products: a rum cake / pecans and a raisin spice cake with a frosting of ginger lashing. And above, right is an orange juice cake. If you want recipes email me at dorislechler77@gmail.com
